I was wondering whether you had ever considered creating a time-line view?  Yet another plug-in I suppose.   

These are useful for presenting key time points.  Some have pictures, but this wouldn't be necessary IMHO.  They come in a variety of styles, some like Gantt charts, others more like 1 and 3.  Examples of different implementations below:

1.   Timeglider

2.  Office timeline:

3.  Timetoast

4.  The timeline project (Sourceforge)

Of course!

Not specifically, but I'm always looking for interesting ideas.

For me to invest the time the Timeline would have to offer a significantly different view to the Gantt Chart, that had clear benefits that Gantt couldn't offer.

Alternatively, the Gantt plugin could offer an option to display its data in the form of a timeline.
